Smaylik (Смайлик)

Mixed Breed · Male · Young · 1 year

Blind white-orange kitten Smiley is waiting for his person... He sees with his heart, not his eyes. He is only 10 months old, and he already knows what pain and loneliness are. Not seeing the world, he still trusts people - reaches out his paws, begs for touch, presses his whole body against you, as if asking: don't leave me... He is neutered, vaccinated, eats and drinks on his own, uses the litter box. Despite his blindness, he does very well on his own. But what he needs most is not that - he needs love. He is very gentle, incredibly tactile, lives for affection and attention. Each petting is a small happiness for him. It breaks your heart to watch him ask for human warmth, and in return - silence. Special animals have such a hard time waiting for a home... But maybe you will become his entire world, which he cannot see, but can feel with his heart. Give a home to someone who desperately wants warmth and affection. He deserves it so much.

Сліпенький біло-рудий котик Смайлик дуже чекає свою людину… Він бачить не очима, а серцем. Йому лише 10 місяців, а він уже знає, що таке біль і самотність. Не бачачи світу, він усе одно довіряє людям — тягнеться до рук, благає про дотик, притискається всім тільцем, ніби просить: не залишай мене…Він кастрований, вакцинований, сам їсть і п’є, ходить на лоточок. Попри сліпоту, чудово дає собі раду. Але найбільше йому потрібне не це — йому потрібна любов. Він дуже ніжний, неймовірно тактильний, живе заради ласки й уваги. Кожне погладжування для нього — маленьке щастя. Серце розривається дивитися, як він просить людського тепла, а у відповідь — тиша. Особливим тваринам так важко дочекатися дому… Але, можливо, саме ви станете для нього цілим світом, який він не бачить, але зможе відчути серцем. Подаруйте дім тому, хто так відчайдушно хоче тепла і ласки. Він так на це заслуговує.

About Smaylik (Смайлик)

What life with Smaylik (Смайлик) looks like

Smaylik (Смайлик) is a young adult mixed breed cat waiting at Happy Paw Kyiv in Ukraine.

An adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇺🇦Adopting from Ukraine

The shelter typically completes the animal's vaccinations, microchipping, and pet passport before adoption. Specific fees and process details vary by shelter and country — confirm directly via the contact details in the sidebar.

Frequently asked

Adopting Smaylik (Смайлик), answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Smaylik (Смайлик)?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Happy Paw Kyiv handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Smaylik (Смайлик) on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Smaylik (Смайлик) if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Happy Paw Kyiv will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Smaylik (Смайлик) already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Smaylik (Смайлик) isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Happy Paw Kyiv early rather than rehoming privately; they know Smaylik (Смайлик) and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (UK). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
